The staff was uncommonly friendly. The hotel is nice, with a non-standard architecture; our room was upgraded to a suite whose main room had a cathedral ceiling; that was an amazing place. But independent of that, there was a general style of considerateness that many other hotels are missing; e.g., in the laundry room, one did not have to buy a packet of detergent, but they had a bottle standing around for the use of the guests, and there were chairs, for the time waiting until the laundry is done. These are trivial things, but other hotels did not provide them.
